- >Thanks for the thoughtful, informative review. Some questions though:
- >1. How do you like the screen, compared to the T1000se say?
-
- It's smaller, of course. It's not quite as bright, nor does it have
- the same contrast. In other words, the T1000SE's screen is better,
- but then I always thought the T1000SE had one of the best screens
- (for non-Windows apps).

- > Can you set it up as a disk, like the T1000SE?
-
- Don't know the prices of accessories, 'cause I didn't ask. It isn't
- PCMCIA compatible, it's much smaller and fits inside the Handbook
- (you have to unscrew a small cover to install it). I'm sure you can
- set it up as a ramdisk, and I believe it keeps *ALL* of ram `hot'
- when in the `powered down' state -- so I think the answer is a
- conditional YES.
-
- >3. Is an internal modem available? If so, what speed and cost?
-
- Yes, 2400bps data, 9600bps FAX, don't know the cost.
-
- >4. How large is the AC adapter and how much does it weigh?
-
- It's about 30% smaller than the T1000SE's, and correspondingly lighter.
- I don't know the exact weight.
